Financial Services – BNY Mellon

We take a look at the employment opportunities in the Financial Services sector with particular focus on opportunities for Military Officers leaving the forces.

We have an exclusive insider’s perspective from Andrea Crompton, of BNY Mellon, with extra insight from our own Lisa Jones.

Financial services are the largest market resource within the world, in terms of earnings. The industry is fast paced and demanding, requiring its staff to be able to react well under pressure and to be innovative and entrepreneurial, seeking solutions for the challenges the market throws at them.

The need for exceptional talent is great and the work often suits ex-forces personnel.

It does not, however, just suit those comfortable in a high risk environment. Heightened regulation means that banks and financial institutions look for opportunities to stand out and use improved risk management processes to deliver customer needs and use regulatory demands as a catalyst for strengthening the business and enhancing market confidence, gaining loyalty.

Bank of New York Mellon run an annual placement scheme to attract ex-forces’ talent and to showcase what opportunities the Bank could offer you in a rewarding and varied career. Andrea Crompton, a former Army Officer, now in Global Talent Acquisition at BNY Mellon, who is running the military programme, joins us for this interactive webinar to explain more and highlight some of the positions that you could apply for and the skills they are looking for. If you thought banking was just for mathematicians, think again.

This exclusive session is part of the OA’s popular new series of webinars focussing on employment advice. These sessions have proved very popular and spaces are limited so please register early and tune in on time to ensure you have a chance to ask your own questions.
